Dataset

Simulated yields and transmissivities for the weathered basement aquifer of Northern Ghana

Groundwater, Water Quantity (Supply, Recharge)GhanaBritish Geological Survey (BGS)

Dataset Objective

To investigate the productivity and sustainability of groundwater abstractions in the Precambrian basement aquifer in Ghana.

Context

The research fund was provided by the UKRI British Geological Survey NC-ODA grant NE/R000069/1 and NE/M008827/1. The data was deposited by the British Geological Survey

What is included

The dataset contains over 40,000 simulated values of maximum allowable yield and corresponding transmissivity values for different realizations of aquifer heterogeneity, net recharge values, and borehole depth.

Collection Methods

Data was collected through modelling.
